Today a plane from The Netherlands will arrive at JFK Airport in New York and two passengers onboard will, for the first time in more than two decades, be able to step safely onto U.S. soil. The arrival of Clemens Ruland and Hugo Bausch will also signal the end of a shameful and discriminatory policy and kept countless individuals - both straight and gay - separated from their loved ones: the US HIV Travel and Immigration Ban will be a relic of the past! :-)
Clemens will be the first HIV-positive person to enter the country in 22 years.
Fay Hartog Levin, the American Ambassador in Holland said goodby to the guys and the Dutch consul picked them up at the airport. Clemens won a contest by writing this poem:
Positive
No more lies
No more pretending
No more hiding
In the crevices of exclusion
Honesty
to the land
where once lay my destiny
in one viral load
Free I am
Free to travel
To hug, share, love
And once more be united
Alive and proud
I turn to you, America
America, here I come
Come as I am
HIV+

No more lies

Honesty
to the land
where once lay my destiny

Free I am
Free to travel
To hug, share, love
And once more be united
Alive and proud
I turn to you, America
America, here I come
Come as I am

The United Nations praised the United States on Monday for lifting travel bans on people with HIV and urged 57 other countries with travel restrictions (sic!) to end them quickly.
So 3D television is coming - Who cares?

I cannot imagine that people actually want to watch TV in 3D. Watching TV at all is something of ancient times it seems and with the content you can find on the tube seeing it in 3D will certainly NOT improve it. Device manufacturers including Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba and LG are all announcing 3-D-enabled televisions and ESPN will broadcast the soccer world cup in 3D.16:47 mareku 0 Comments
I cannot see anyone sitting at home with glasses in front of their screen. No 3D is fun for a pop corn Sunday afternoon movie - I think it will stay that way...
Rik Ringers will never run again...

Gilbert Gascard - better knows as Tibet died yesterday. He created with André-Paul Duchâteau Rik Ringers - one of my favorite comic detectives. He was also responsible for the funny Chick Bill western comics.16:41 mareku 0 Comments
